Urotensin II promotes atherosclerosis in cholesterol-fed rabbits.

Urotensin II promotes atherosclerosis in cholesterol-fed rabbits.

Urotensin II (UII) is a vasoactive peptide composed of 11 amino acids that has been implicated to contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether UII affects the development of atherosclerosis in cholesterol-fed rabbits. UII was infused f...
